Extraordinary growth in tiger sharks Galeocerdo cuvier from the South Atlantic Ocean.

Abstract

Two tagged-and-recaptured tiger sharks Galeocerdo cuvier, measuring 172 and 304 cm total length (L(T) ) and at age 0.75 and 3.50 years, exhibited unmatched growth rates of 118.4 and 55.5 cm year(-1), respectively. The larger fish was nearly mature, indicating that G. cuvier off Brazil could mature considerably earlier than conspecifics from other regions.
